This is just a quick blurb out to every one. This is fantastic news! We just found out that Phoenix Combat Academy/Jay Pages Jiu-Jitsu's own Tsui-Jen Cunanan was ranked #9 in the world according to the Womens MMA Amateur Rankings. This is a great and wonderful accomplishment for Tsui-Jen and Phoenix Combat Academy. She worked hard to get there trainers Jay Pages and Sunshine Fettkether will keep the momentum going! She's only going to get better! To all sponsors and promoters, keep your eye out for her! Pick her up now! Sponsor her! Get her on your shows!

This is one of the best member contests we’ve had here at Phoenix Combat Academy and Jay Pages Jiu-Jitsu! This member contest will be for 6 months of FREE TRAINING! Thats a lot of money you could be saving if you win! So here’s how it works! Each quarter (January – March, April – June, July – September, and October to December), all members will work towards gaining referrals. What that means is, for every person that signs up for a membership and has you as a referral, you gain an entry to count towards your final number.

If you have ever had the opportunity to train with Caio or have ever had the opportunity to attend one of his seminars, you would know that the title of this post is by no means any stretch of the imagination nor an over exaggeration. If anything, I would say it's and understatement!

To date, November 20th was the largest testing group with 21 students being tested! Everyone worked very hard of the past 2 months leading up to the test! As part of this test, I promoted 4 new blue belt. It was a long and arduous test, everyone passed with flying colors, and everyone had a briliant performance! I couldn't be prouder of this test group. We were also joined with my long time friend and training partner, Ruffhouse Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt Jay Inciong and his family Jinky, Isabelle, and Jacob. Thank you for joining us and partaking in this very joyous occasion!

Saturday November, 20 2010 will be host to Jay Pages Jiu-Jitsu’s largest Belt and Stripes Testing group to date! This test will be a long and extensive one! This test will be the last one for the year and the last one before we switch to our automated system of tracking mat time/training time. Check back next week to see the results and pictures of the Jay Pages Jiu-Jitsu Belt and Stripes Testing!

Just a quick update. We originally had Bashir Saber and Gustavo Romero scheduled to fight at RITC 147 in Tucson, AZ on December 3rd. Unfortunately they had to be pulled from the card due to injury. Bashir to a knee injury and Gustavo to a rib injury. It’s an unfortunate circumstance but it’s all part of the game. It seems that we are all done for the year with MMA events. Now it’s time to take the next few months to hone our skills and sharpen all the tools in the shed and to hit ground running when 2011 comes around! We’ll keep up the good work!

All fights are set and confirmed for Phoenix Combat Academy’s last MMA event for the year! On December 3rd 2010, we have Bashir Saber and Gustavo Romero closing out the year for Phoenix Combat Academy! Continuing his 2 fight win streak, Bashi Saber will be taking on a newcomer to MMA. He will be fighting Nick Ackiss of Tucson Arizona. Nick is in for a rude awakening! Gustavo will be up against an un-known, Van Sanders. With 3 amateur muay thai fights under his belt, he takes his stand up experience and his ground work and makes the transition to the cage.

Below is a complete list of the team results that includes students from Arthur Ruff's school in Ohio, Ruffhouse in Mesa, Jay Pages Jiu-Jitsu, and Darrell Taylor's students. As a team, we had a great show of skill and dedication to the sport. Now we rest and prepare our games for the 2011 competition year.White & Grey
